Presenter of Scholarly Papers I tend to be really flexible and try to adapt my teaching style to the learning style of the student. For students who tend to be more tactile, I might have them handle apples if a math problem references apples. If a student is working on a writing assignment, I will offer suggestions (such as marking spelling/grammar/punction mistakes) and help them learn how to correct the errors so they won't continue to make the same errors in the future.

Andrew F. - San Antonio, TX 78209 (37.9 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $30.00/hr.
My approach is one that is peculiar to each of my students. As an auto-didactic learner, I believe that everyone has their own way of learning. Therefore, I use an approach that I feel works well for each of my students, with regard to whether a student thinks abstractly or concretely, for example. With so many possible goals, it is important to be flexible to work with each student's learning style. I present concepts with the idea that experience is the key to learning. I strive to create a warm atmosphere that allows students to feel comfortable with making mistakes, with making progress and with being themselves. I see the process as a wonderful opportunity for students to gain knowledge and awareness and to personally develop.
With my patience, positive energy, personal insight and passion for working with people, I help my students work towards progress while having a fun time

Marvin C - San Antonio, TX 78250 (30.7 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $41.50/hr.
Whether it is in front of a class
of 40 or one-on-one, I have been
endowed not only with the talent
to teach, but also with the
God-given ability to motivate.
Most students hate my guts for the
first week or two because I do not
tolerate underachievement from
anyone, including parents; but
down the line the most frequent
evaluation I receive is, “Mr.
C, you are awesome.”
There is no one who cannot be
motivated to learn something well;
and I always associate what must
be learned with what a student's
passion is or in what he/she is
already interested. My students
do not just learn the subject I
teach. They learn how to learn
and think "out of the box" and
how to become a success. My teaching credentials are in
English and education. However...
At the middle school level and
high school level, I have
taught/tutored English composition,
geography, history, soci

Sean d - San Antonio, TX 78228 (32 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I began teaching as an Instructor and Dean's Fellow in Rhetoric and Composition and in English literature courses while a graduate student at the University of Iowa, consistently earning student praise in end-of-course evaluations. I bring the depth and breadth of full baccalaureate majors in Greek, Latin and British literature to my teaching and research, and am adept at assisting students who have not benefited from exposure to advanced essay composition. I feel I am specifically gifted in empowering my students to work hard at improving their essay skills. It is, after all, the essay that constitutes all college-level discourse, and for this reason it is imperative that college-bound students be well-honed writers of expository prose. I have a reputation for making often difficult and recondite literature accessible and appealing, while candidly admitting its rigors. My personal ed

Justin T - Helotes, TX 78023 (34.9 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $39.50/hr.
Applicable to this job, I remember my high school years and the processes I had during my English and Composition assignments. I completed an English Bachelor’s degree, with three different areas of focus, Professional Writing, Creative Writing, and Composition. I am finishing a Master’s degree in Rhetoric and Composition. I am on temporary, as-needed employment at Pearson Education Services as a scorer. Finally, I tutored, assisted, and participated in the lives of my fellow students. My experience has allowed me to have an understanding of theory, practice, and rhetoric and solve any personal compositional and academic concerns that have come up, and I look forward to doing so again at this job of tutoring. My missionary experiences informed me of one idea: people are important and they have to be considered person-by-person. Those experiences have led me to take a teaching philosophy

Kathleen R - San Antonio, TX 78201 (35.4 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $38.50/hr.
As a professional teacher, I see my role as a facilitating educator, supporting adult students in what they need and want to know and learn. It is the teacher's responsibility to serve the education needs of the student in a communicative, patient and enjoyable manner. I believe learning new skills and absorbing new knowledge, in themselves, are two of the greatest joys of life. Essentially, learning is a pleasure. As with all adult education, the actual responsibility for learning is the student's; the teacher creates purposeful lessons, guides, corrects, assesses and, certainly, supports and praises all efforts. Also critical to the success of the student-teacher relationship is mutual trust and respect. I was graduated from the St Louis 4-year Liberal Arts high school, St Joseph's Academy, after which I spent many years in Australia. All my tertiary and teacher's credentials are from

Amanda W - San Antonio, TX 78213 (35.8 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $37.00/hr.
In 2008, as an upper-level English major, I accepted a position with Schreiner University wherein I hoped to use my education in the concentration of composition. For the rest of my college career until I earned my B.A., I tutored fellow students at various stages of the writing process, from conceptualization to polishing. I also met frequently with fellow tutors to discuss researched tutoring theory and tactics. Having achieved great success in this position, my supervisor, the director of Schreiner's Writing Center, also personally arranged much contract work for me with clients of various ages and levels of education. In my experience as a tutor, I have acquired the highly important skill of adaptability. Certainly, particular techniques and strategies such as asking provocative questions are helpful with any student of any age. More importantly, though, I have learned that the be

Working hard and always driven is how I was able to obtain a Bachelor of Arts in Interdisciplinary Studies with a concentration in Bilingual 4th – 8th grade. Sul Ross State University gave me the tools and expertise needed in order to achieve mastery on my chosen career in education as well as making me proficient in all academic areas such as English, Math, and Science including Bilingual Education.Furthermore my college courses at Sul Ross made me alert to the importance of hands on activities, visuals aids and providing individualized instructional support for a diverse population.During the last four years Ive had the privilege to gain a great deal of knowledge and to experience working with kids on a day to day basis. Working with kids is my fascination. I believe that teaching children should not be standing up and lecturing or simply explaining something. Its about getting to kno

Erica M - San Antonio, TX 78212 (36.9 mi) - Poetry Tutor - $59.50/hr.
In my last three years of teaching I was the Inclusion/Resource teacher, however, I also worked with some Life-Skills students, as well as doing some 4th grade co-teaching. I am comfortable in working with at-risk students and understand the importance of having a rapport with them. My first year as a teacher I taught ESL at a catholic high school. I would love to tutor you or your child because I can help you/them grow and become an independent learner. I would like to stress my thanks for your consideration and look forward to hearing from you. I design the lesson to the learning preference of the student. I incorporate technology, visual, tactile and kinesthetic teaching styles. This gives the student the maximum opportunity to learn. If a student is having trouble with reading comprehension there are various skill sets a child learns in order to help with standardized tests.
